Testimonials

Word of mouth referral , or the recommendation of a friend has always been the best kind of accolade. At Tampa Bay Veterinary Dentistry, we want customer satisfaction, whether it is the referring veterinarian or the pet owner, to be one of our barometers of success. Listed below are some brief recounts of past cases and comments from their owners:

Contact 'The Pet Dentist' for your pet's teeth cleaning consultation or appointment.

Our cat "Hope" was diagnosed with Stomatitis. We could tell her mouth was uncomfortable and it was a struggle to get her to eat.  She lost several pounds and was miserable. Hearing that one option is to pull most or all of the teeth as a possible solution was scary. We tried the medicine route first, but that did not work for her. She was getting worse. After consulting with Dr. Peak, we decided to pull most of her teeth. You and your staff were so kind and knowledgeable that it made us feel much better about this step. It was definitely the right thing to do. "Hope" has since recovered, gained weight, is happy and playful again and eats canned and dry food. Thank you for helping us save our sweet "Hope."  Mr. and Mrs. H, Bradenton, FL

“Mickey” the rescue Dachshund

“Mickey” presented to us for repair of a very large opening in the roof of her mouth suspected to be caused by having a stick lodged between her teeth in the roof of her mouth. She was a rescue and had two previous unsuccessful surgeries to close the defect. Her photographs can be seen on the Oral Surgery webpage. When she ate, food and debris would enter her nasal cavity causing chronic nasal infection and risking pneumonia. She was unable to eat/consume food normally and was losing weight rapidly.

“Mickey’s” owner writes:

“I cannot say enough about the dedication of the people at the clinic and your dedication to the wellness of helpless animals. Also the kindness you show to “us” pet owners… From the time we arrived at the clinic, Mickey was treated as she was the most special dog in the world… Today, four months later, Mickey is eating on her own…has gone from 7lbs to 11.5lbs and has been given a second chance at life by you, Dr. Peak and your associates. All I needed to add was love and lots of food.”

Special thanks in this case to Dr. John Kirsch, Dipl. ACVS and Dr. Heidi Ward, Dipl. ACVIM

“Biscuit”

“Biscuit” presented to us after having unexplained episodes of possible pain and would run and hide under a bed. Her suspicious behavior seemed to be localized to her mouth as determined by her referring veterinarian. Initially, diagnostic dental x-rays were inconclusive, but eventually, the tooth abscess became apparent and the problem was remedied.

“Biscuit’s” owner writes:

“I want to express our sincerest appreciation for the wonderful “beyond the call” care you have provided us for “Biscuit”. She is herself again – playing with her toys and no longer hiding under the beds. You and your staff are truly exceptional people – professionals! You receive our highest recommendations.”

"Bud Jr."

We cannot thank Dr. Peak and his staff enough for everything they did for our cat “Bud Jr.” and for our family when he was diagnosed with Squamous Cell Carcinoma. Dr. Peak was very upfront and honest with us about Bud’s chance for recovery, and he was extremely compassionate towards our daughter who is very attached to Bud. When we made the decision to go ahead with the surgery, Dr. Peak and his staff were wonderful about letting us know want was going on every step of the way. When we brought him home, they were very supportive and gave us all the guidance we needed to carry out the daily procedures he needed during his recovery. It has been almost a year now since Bud’s procedure, and thanks to Dr. Peak’s expertise and the will of God, who we know guided us all, Bud is doing great. We are enjoying every moment with him. All we can say is thank you Dr. Peak for giving us this wonderful gift.
